No, I'm not really a gambler.  I'm the kind of person that goes to a casino (which is rare), wins $5, and quits.  :-p

Maybe 2 or 3 times per year. I'd rather spend my dollar on a thimble of gasoline or save for a few days so I can buy a cup of coffee at Starbucks.

We play the lottery but I don't think of it as gambling as much as giving me something to look forward to on a bi-weekly basis.  It's fun to think about and make plans for what we'd do if we won.  When they raised the price for Powerball, we cut out the auto-pick because that would have made it more of an expense than just a little entertainment.  With everything going up, I can't even get a Redbox movie for a dollar anymore  :sad1:

I'd like to, but I never keep cash on me.  and you cannot play if paying with a credit card.  Which seems weird, but then again it's a good practice to ensure people do not abuse a credit card.

Yes I do play the Lotto once in a while just for the fun of it, you will never know if by any change you hit the winning numbers. So the last thing you lose it your faith.

I have places online I can spend that money and get a guaranteed return, why would I poke it down a rat hole?

I play scratchoffs every so often, but not too much.  It's not a guaranteed return - technically, with my luck, it's a guaranteed loss!

I'm almost 20 and I bought my first ticket out of a machine a month ago. It was a dollar. I won a dollar. I lost the ticket. I lost a dollar. Never again. haha

I don't bother with it.  I can find other places to spend my money.

I have never played the lotto, and have no desire to play. To me, it's just not worth it.

Every once in a blue moon I will buy a lottery ticket for one of the big jackpot games.
I only buy one ticket.

I don't, but mother in law does.

One ticket a game... two games a week.

She really thinks she can win again.. :thumbsup:
